iTunes Editors’ Notes

On their first two albums—2010's Creatures and 2012's Infamous—Motionless in White juggled a range of styles, from pummeling blast-beat hardcore to grinding industrial to occasionally melodic metalcore. And while their music earned the descriptor "horror metal," it could also be quite tuneful. Reincarnate pulls all these elements together. Chris Motionless is a vocal acrobat, screaming, cackling, and growling one minute, belting melodic lines the next. The title track is a fist-pumping anthem, its punishing verse giving way to a soaring chorus. Meanwhile, "Puppets 3 (The Grand Finale)" is a grindcore/thrash metal confection. Stylistically ranging ("Wasp" is a seven-minute downtempo nightmare!), this is Motionless in White's most accomplished work to date.

Man, has this band grown!

Just from hearing the titled track, I am blown away. No, they aren't the same band as creatures, they've evolved and "Reincarnated" themselves into their true potential, making a sound distinctly of their own, regardless of what people think or the music trends of current day. MIW is doing something that has needed to be done for a long time, and as every other band sounds more and more redundant and exactly like every other band, this band are taking the first step, not afraid what the crowd thinks, and being music artists as opposed to music "players". Bravo boys, well done.

Amazing!

Years Active: '00s, '10s

While their hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania is mostly known in popular culture for being perfectly mundane, gothic metalcore band Motionless in White make music that's anything but tame. Blending the raw fury of metalcore with the dramatic atmospherics of goth-metal and industrial, the band has cultivated a dark and moody sound that owes as much to Type O Negative as it does to Slayer. Formed in 2005 while members Chris Cerulli (vocals), Angelo Parente (drums), Mike Costanza (guitar), and Frank...
